The National Weather Service in Seattle reports that today's weather will start mostly cloudy. Still, we can expect the skies to gradually clear as the day progresses, moving towards a pleasant high of around 74 degrees. "Mostly cloudy, then gradually becoming sunny," the NWS described, with light winds shifting south southwest in the afternoon.
As the evening rolls in, those clouds won't be straying far, cloaking the night with a low of around 58 degrees and a soft south breeze. The approach of Friday hints at an overcast morning giving way to an afternoon promise of a high near 72, accompanied by a relaxing south-southwest wind.
Residents hoping for a rainless weekend might need to adjust their plans. Saturday carries a 40 percent chance of bringing showers after 11 am, turning into a higher likelihood of rain and potential thunderstorms by nightfall. The NWS anticipates "Showers and possibly a thunderstorm," with precipitation amounts reaching up to half an inch.
While the tumult may seem settled by Sunday morning, there's still a chance for showers and thunderstorms to make a cameo before the late morning hours. The day should then dry out, revealing partly sunny skies and a high again huddling close to 72. The trusted forecast calls for partly cloudy skies as the new week commences, maintaining daytime highs in the low 70s.
